Student ID: 38982299 15. Good practice. Sulfur has amongst the most diverse chemistry of all of the atoms of the periodic table. For example, it forms a large number of different compounds in the presence of oxygen, including SO2, SO3, SO32- and SO42. In each of these molecules, the S-O bond distances are different, as can be seen in the table at right. Provide a rationale for the reported bond distances for each of these species. Molecule rso (pm) Sulfur dioxide SO2 144 Sulfur trioxide SO3 142 Sulphite [SO3]²- 152 Sulphate [SO4]²- 149
